http://www.advogato.org/person/Zooko/diary.html?start=5<P>Whoo hoo!
<p>The O'Reilly p2p conference was great! I met many cool,
clueful p2p network developers, learned how the other p2p
networks work, and learned how to link <a
href="http://mojonation.net/">Mojo Nation</a> to some of the
other networks.
<p>Now I get to spend a weekend visiting friends in Silly
Valley before returning home to snowy, beautiful
Halifax.

http://www.advogato.org/person/Zooko/diary.html?start=4<p>On Wednesday I move to Canada to live with Amber, my
partner, my paramour, my pregnant fiancée. Life is rich and
challenging and deeply satisfying.
<p> <p>This weekend Greg and I worked really hard to fix all of
the bugs in Mojo Nation. By Monday morning we had Mojo
Nation release 0.87, which is actually stable and useful
(you can install it and surf Mojo Nation and download
stuff). It still has some big performance issues, but
that's because we've been too busy just making it
<em>work</em> to worry about them.
<p> <p>It is actually an interesting question as to how to
optimize downloading time in Mojo Nation. <a
href="http://advogato.org/person/raph/">Raph</a> gave me
some ideas about this a Linux World. (Raph's diary entry
says that the Eazel party was the high point. That's great,
because that's the only part of Linux World that I
attended! Oh yeah, and I drank part of a free beer courtesy
of VA Linux and I danced to an extended dance mix of "Enjoy
The Silence".)
<p> <p>Unfortunately I'll probably have other priorities and
Greg will get to have all the fun of writing an optimized
download strategy for Mojo Nation. Drat.

http://www.advogato.org/person/Zooko/diary.html?start=2<p>Fixed a few small bugs in Mojo Nation socket management
and auto-payment feature.
<p> <p>The whole Evil Geniuses team is going to DefCon to
release Mojo Nation to the hungry masses. I'm really
excited!
<p> <p>There are other big things going on in my life that are
too wonderful to fit into this little text window.

http://www.advogato.org/person/Zooko/diary.html?start=1Running tests of Mojo Nation alpha 2. If you want to be an
alpha tester, please write and ask. (It's an
invitation-only, top secret alpha test only available to
people with Top Secret clearance and conversational
Martian. But please write and ask anyway. We like innocent
vict^H^H^H^H alpha testers.)Wed, 12 Jul 2000 19:36:49 GMT12 Jul 2000http://www.advogato.org/person/Zooko/diary.html?start=0
http://www.advogato.org/person/Zooko/diary.html?start=0<p>Today I'm putting asynchronous IO into Mojo Nation. This
will make the code simpler, make the app a bit faster (but
probably not noticeably), and make it possible to actually
shut down the app cleanly. With the current, synchronous,
IO, we
usually find the Python interpreter hung on a blocking call
to accept() and we have to kill it the hard way.
<p>I'm also supporting the Mojo Hackers, who are busily
doing a port to BSD.
<p>I'm also trying to get the table of licenses up on
Advogato...
